Lyrics
Come on ride in, I ain?t hidin?
you can hear me from the West Bank surely now
as we?re filing off the strip
God don?t let me lose my grip
Another house burnt down by the roadside
a father cries as the ambulance is pullin? in
he lost his wife and a son last Tuesday
he cried why was the Lord too late?
Sinners in the synagogue
Bin Laden in his garden
wrapped in gold and blood stained dollar bills
Bin Laden in his garden with tin gold and blood stained bills
Sinners in the synagogue
I was standing with my soul on the sidewalk
the day the planes came roarin? in
and the skyline just ain?t the same
the day the world caught flames
Sinners in the synagogue
Well keep on ridin? Bin Laden
Keep God in the garden
Sinners in the synagogue
